6x+9=3x-3

Question

6x+9=3x-3

Astrid1 · Answer

6x + 9 = 3x -3

Subract nine from each side of the equation.

6x+9-9=3x-3-9

Simplify

6x=3x-12

Subtract three from each side of the equation

6x-3x=3x-12-3x

Simplify

3x=-12

Divide both sides by 3
3x/3 = -12/3

So your answer should be x=-4

Oh that would be why.

See when I said your answer equals -4 I put the equal sign too close to the four. My bad, I'm sorry. I should've spaced them.
